septoplastia láser
La corrección de un tabique desviado se realiza aplicando altas temperaturas. Los cirujanos indican una corrección con láser a pacientes con:
Ventaja: una septoplastia láser no necesita incisiones por lo que durante y después del procedimiento no hay sangrado. La recuperación va más rápido que después de la corrección quirúrgica.
Desventaja: un láser puede influir solo en un tejido de cartílago, por lo que el procedimiento no está indicado para personas con deformaciones óseas.
Septoplastia endoscópica
La operación se procesa de forma endonasal, sin incisión. Durante la septoplastia endoscópica, un médico utiliza un tubo especial con luz de fondo y una cámara que transmite la imagen al monitor. Un médico lo inserta en la cavidad nasal junto con instrumentos especiales para corregir el tabique. Ventajas: un procedimiento permite corregir defectos severos. No quedan cicatrices visibles en un paciente después de una septoplastia endoscópica.
Desventaja: esta es una operación quirúrgica, y después puede ocurrir un pequeño sangrado. Como resultado, la recuperación es más lenta que después de la septoplastia con láser.
Corrección quirúrgica del tabique desviado (septoplastia tradicional)
El procedimiento se realiza a través de la incisión externa de la piel. Un médico retira la membrana mucosa del cartílago y los tejidos óseos para corregirlos:
Ventajas: un procedimiento permite corregir defectos de cualquier complejidad.
Desventaja: una recuperación después de la septoplastia quirúrgica dura más que después de la no quirúrgica.
Preparación
La preparación para la cirugía de tabique desviado incluye:
Operación
La intervención se realiza bajo anestesia local con sedación o bajo anestesia general. Depende de la etapa del defecto y del tipo de corrección. La duración media del procedimiento es de 1 hora.
<Recuperación
Después de la septoplastia, el paciente permanece en el hospital durante 1 noche. El número y la frecuencia de las consultas postoperatorias se determinan individualmente para cada paciente por un médico. La estadía promedio en el país después del procedimiento es de 5 a 10 días.
